I got the blox oil temp and presure gauges. I got a sandwich plate that i also bought from blox. Now for the oil pressure unit i cant get it to fit without taking outt he stock oil pressure unit. I was wondering if i can take out the stock unit and add it to the sandwich adapter and just connect it there and then just block off the stock location ??? any inputs? also for wiring, do i groung the presure unit and then run the red wire to the sensor>???? as for tempterature i think i got it right, just run that red wire to the sensor.
See no space:

heres how im thinking of doing it:

 

Try putting the oil pressure sender unit where the temp sensor is and rotate the sandwich about 90* counter clockwise. Look like it'll work like that.... I made it work somehow...

 

nope, ive tried all the ways.

 

 

wat i did for my autometer oil pressure was, run a stainless steel braided line from the stock oil pressure location up to the firewall about 6-7 inches, then i tee it off, one end for the pressure sending unit, the other end for the oem unit. works great for the last 2 years.

 

If you block off the stock oil pressure sensor, I would connect the OEM plug somehow to your new oil pressure sensor as well. And if you do, I don't see a problem with that setup.

You should have a bung welded on your oil pan for your oil temp sensor.

Then do it the way you have in the last pic.....

 

shouldnt be an issue? Just plug the stock location with a brass plug?

 

wats that clip for on the sender unit? is that the ground?

 

What size thread is the sensor out of interest? Are they likey to be the same on all honda's? Im running a H22
